| Course Description: |
| | This course is a paired internship course that is taught
concurrently or after the biotechnology 1,2 (honors)
course. The course curriculum allows students to
participate in an onsite biomanufacturing internship that
is a practical application of their acquired biotechnology
skills to gain further understanding of the biotechnology
industry and practical application and refinement of their
laboratory and industry skills. All students completing
biotechnology 1,2 (honors) are eligible to take this
course, addressing severe limitations to accessibility to
offsite biomanufacturing and biotechnology laboratory
internships due to various factors including internship
availability, student course load and schedule,
transportation access, and industry age restrictions. |
